Steve Brill, one of our great investigative reporters, has written a sobering cover story for the current issue of Time magazine. Entitled “Bitter Pill. Why Medical Bills Are Killing Us,” this 30-page report (the longest article Time has ever published) documents in abundant detail the current practices of the fast-growing medical establishment. I heard about it at a (real) dinner party last week from someone who had an advance copy, and when I came home Brill was on Charlie Rose describing the exhaustive research he did for this piece. Read it — it will jolt you.Gabriella de Ferrari
